whats a better platform to work with? dollar per h.p. wise. C-5 or C5Z is it really worth the money going after a z or not?
to clear things up, what would be the best bang for the buck, c-5 or c5z.
What year?

Depends on your goals. The Z has better heads and cam (and is lighter from several things). If your aiming for 450 N/A RWHP or less, than the Z is cheaper, as you can (probably) use the stock heads, if you want 500+ RWHP, you'll need new heads and everything else anyway, so you might as well start with the base LS1. You could also always spray the Z and get >500 RWHP, but I'm not a big nitrous fan these days.
The other advantage is weight due to the exhaust (titanium) some body panels and the fixed roof (though you can get a fixed roof non-Z (FRC) but they cost about the same as the Z anyway...).
Personally, I'd buy a base C5 Targa as sub 500 RWHP just doesn't get it done now days...
edit: This assumes the two are within ~2000 dollars in price. If the Z is >2000 dollars more, the base is going to be cheaper to make fast(er) regardless.
